The U.S government paid USD 110 billion every year to treat chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease.
-
Increase in Renal Complications of Patients during COVID - As per the estimations, about 25% of global patients hospitalized with COVID-19 developed kidney injuries, and over 45% of patients with kidney injuries in the ICU (intensive care unit) needed dialysis
-
Rise in the Geriatric Population Across the World - There are higher chances among the aged population to be affected by the diseases, as the immunity gets weaken with age, and it is projected to drive the global dialysis market. As per the estimations, the number of old people across the world will double by 2050 and reach 2 billion up from 1.5 billion in 2030.
Challenges
-
Rise in Kidney Transplantation - In the last decade, the number of live donor kidney transplants performed in the US and Canada has doubled and now represents just over 40% of all donor kidneys. Among deceased donor kidneys, the largest percentage increases were seen in expanded criteria donors and kidneys donated after cardiac death.
- Rise in Cost of Renal Therapy followed by COVID
- Lack of Awareness of Kidney Diseases

Dialysis Market Segmentation:
Type Segment Analysis
The global dialysis market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by type into hemodialysis, and peritoneal dialysis. Out of these, the hemodialysis segment is anticipated to hold the largest market size by the end of 2035 owing to the efficiency of dialysis to remove toxic materials and the rise of homecare adoption in end-stage renal disease and growing hypertension cases. As per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 670,000 deaths occurred owing to hypertension in the U.S in 2020. Hemodialysis is a process where blood is cleaned using a dialysis machine and a specific filter called an artificial kidney, or a dialyzer. The doctor must gain access to blood vessels in order to enter blood into the dialyzer. Minor surgery is used to accomplish this, typically on the arm. Hemodialysis can be carried out at home, in a hospital, or in a separate dialysis facility. A patient's doctor will pick the ideal location depending on the patient's medical needs and preferences.
End-user Segment Analysis
The global dialysis market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end-user into in-center, and home dialysis. Amongst these two segments, the in-center segment is expected to garner a significant share. Patients needing dialysis often visit centers for treatment, and it is easier and convenient for them to have the treatment directly from the same hospital or center premises, where it was diagnosed. When a person receives their dialysis treatments in-center, they do it at a dialysis facility. When the kidneys are unable to do this task, dialysis is a procedure that removes wastes and excess fluid from the blood.
